A little problem – the second link points to the first video. It also appears that you don’t move the widgets so intensively in the second video but the result is pretty good anyway.
Keep up your excellent work, GNOME needs more people like you.

Rob is right, it seems (for no good reason) that the link is right but results broken with an unsuitable plugin, I’m looking at this page from FF3 on Leopard but looking at the source code everything appears to be ok.

Both are much worse than normal due to the increased lag of two ssh tunnels.

The second one still flickers, but it has removed a whole class of problems, namely that subwindows gets moved by the X server so the position of wigets get out of sync (overlapping and stuff). In the second movie you never see this.

I’m not sure exactly about the reasons for the remaining flicker, but hopefully that can be fixed too.

Roger Clark: Because YouTube relies on Flash, which is horrendously unstable on Linux and likes taking out the entire web browser. At a guess, anyway – that’s why I’d go for Theora myself. Quite apart from Theora being a nice open format.
